Get a Price →Whether you're operating a single Gaithersburg warehouse or a multi-site network across Maryland, the Custom Wood Pallets requirements are the same: consistent grade, on-time delivery, accurate count, and clean paperwork. United States Pallets built our Custom Wood Pallets program around exactly that profile of customer.
United States Pallets is the national-network alternative to local Maryland pallet suppliers for Gaithersburg-area B2B buyers. Where regional vendors offer geographic proximity, USP offers nationwide sourcing depth, multi-grade always-in-stock inventory, sub-2-hour quote response, and the documentation discipline Custom Wood Pallets customers need at scale.
What Gaithersburg operators get with United States Pallets that they don't get with most Maryland pallet suppliers: multi-grade inventory always available simultaneously (so a single load can mix new GMA, recycled Grade A, and recycled Grade B), tiered pricing automation (no haggling per load), and standing-order programs that reserve weekly delivery slots.
Pricing transparency: United States Pallets publishes Custom Wood Pallets pricing structures (not specific dollar amounts since lumber markets move). Volume tiers kick in automatically as cumulative monthly volume crosses thresholds. New Gaithersburg accounts ship prepaid for 1-3 loads while credit is being established, then move to net-30 standard.
50 pallets per order minimum on buy-side. Sell-side (buyback) minimum is 250 pallets per single-size load. Volume tiers kick in automatically as cumulative monthly volume increases - 500+/week accounts qualify for standing-order programs with reserved delivery slots. Single-pallet orders are not available, so buyers who need fewer pallets usually start with recycled Grade B stock, the lowest-priced published tier. Quotes are requested through the intake form.
Net-30 credit terms standard after the first 1-3 prepaid or COD loads while credit is being established. Submit a credit application with three trade references; approval typically processes within 48 hours. Volume accounts can negotiate net-45 or net-60. ACH transfer is the preferred way to pay invoices, wire transfer is accepted for large orders, and pallet buy-back proceeds can be paid by ACH or applied as credit against new pallet purchases.
Yes, with ISPM-15 heat-treated pallets carrying IPPC stamps and full ISPM-15 documentation. Generally required for any solid wood pallet crossing an international border. Common for Gaithersburg customers with port access via Maryland's major export gateways. Heat treatment brings the wood core to at least 56C (132.8F) for 30 continuous minutes, and the IPPC mark must appear on two opposite sides of each pallet.
Yes. We deliver to every commercial address in Maryland, with same-day shipping standard in our Southeast/Mid-Atlantic core and scheduled weekly delivery elsewhere.

Loads move by dry van, flatbed, live load, or drop trailer depending on the dock, and every load ships with a bill of lading, packing list, and grade certification.
Yes. We buy back used pallets from Gaithersburg collectors, recyclers, and warehouses - 250-pallet minimum per load, single-size only (no mixed-size loads).
